The Swedish Defence Materiel Administration (FMV) has, within the LRIX pilot project in Lund (southern Sweden), carried out two procurements in the field of surface surveillance: sensors that detect movement and raise an alarm, and a situational awareness system that gathers the sensor information. Five contracts have been signed in each procurement, following 40 submitted tenders.

The requirements were developed together with the South Scanian Regiment (P7). Field trials will be conducted in November with P7, FMV's test and evaluation activities, and the Swedish Defence Research Agency (FOI).
